Abstract

Renewable energy is the prominent solution for environmental carbon foot printing control. Conventional energy generation plants are causing a reduction in fossil fuels, and such precious fuels need to be controlled. Fossil fuels are also responsible for the increase in carbon footprinting. Much research focuses on the development of a new model, but it is necessary to evaluate the existing research and identify the gaps to make it more usable. Hence, this paper aims to re-develop and test the performance of biodegradable microbial fuel cell biodegradable substrates, which can be used to set up the renewable energy microgrid. Power output is important to set up any microgrid; hence, we identified and compared two single-chamber microbial fuel cells with biodegradable substrate materials: pineapple waste and dairy waste water. The paper also discusses the applicability of renewable energy resources depending on the availability of natural resources in a particular geographical region.
